G2 testing : lock up while NOT saving file

I have experienced a lock-up of gnucash. I was playing with one of my 
test files and decided to open another file. Selected File -> Open -> 
Open... . Pop-up dialog says I have not saved changes, would you like to 
(working from memory here). I click NO. That pop-up dialog blanks out, 
but remains on the screen and gnucash is lock-up. there is no gnucash in 
top or ps -e. there is however guile. terminal says:

andrew at basement:~$ /opt/gnc2/bin/gnucash


This is a development version. It may or may not work.
Report bugs and other problems to gnucash-devel at gnucash.org.
You can also lookup and file bug reports at http://bugzilla.gnome.org
The last stable version was GnuCash 1.8.12
The next stable version will be GnuCash 2.0

initializing gnc_html...
gnucash: [W] "failure loading ""/home/andrew/.gnucash/config-1.8.auto"
gnucash: [W] "report-menu-setup"
Use of deprecated SAXv1 function getLineNumber
*** glibc detected *** realloc(): invalid next size: 0xb6213c88 ***

this is the total output from starting the program to crash. I have 
successfully replicated it once, but now it will not happen for me 
again.... I opened the file, which had an Income Statement report 
already open in the saved version. SO I had just the accounts and the 
report up. Then open three registers from the report (see other thread 
about window size creep) then as before File -> Open -> Open... click NO 
and then (second time through here) I got this:

Multiple segmentation faults occurred; can't display error dialog


I did however display an error dialog asking if I wanted to inform you 
all ;). This brings up bug boddy which didn't seem to be any help. no 
stack.

I'll try to reproduce it again, but its not working at the moment. Well, 
I guess that means it is working? ;) oh yeah. CVS 10/30 in afternoon (PST).
